Climber that doesn't mind shade or wet soil?
 
i've got an old apple tree at the end of my garden, in the winter the soil
is very wet down there and it only gets the sun in the later afternoons. Is
there a climber that doesn't mind such conditions which I could grow up the
tree to give some interest to the trunk?
Thanks

Well, I have a very similar situation except the tree is a cherry and is
dead, and it is sunny in the mornings,I have just planted two clematis to go
up it and hopefully all over it (since its dead I'm not worried about any
comnpetition for resources), will let you know what the outcome is.
